The Hoylandswaine Approach to the Teaching of Reading
Read Write Inc
At Hoylandswaine we follow the RWI Phonic scheme of work. This is a fun, fast paced and interactive phonic programme that we deliver daily throughout Reception and Year 1. The sounds taught to children are broken down into 3 sets and these can be found below. Our aim is for all our children to fluent in set 1, 2 and 3 sounds by the end of Year 1.
Quality Texts
We have carefully planned our reading curriculum to give our children exposure to a range of quality texts that will give them to skills to read with confidence and most importantly instil a love of reading. Many of these texts have been selected from the HCAT reading Spine.
In addition to the HCAT reading spine there is also the 'Reading Reconsidered' spine that also offers a wide range of age appropriate books that can be read for pleasure.
